Checking her rearview mirror quickly, she breathed a sigh of relief. Michelle took her eyes away from the three trailers behind her carrying her 3 stallions, and averted her gaze to her magnificent new home. She smiled a huge smile and parked her truck. She almost spun around in place to show just how happy she was! Finally, she walked around to the other trailers and happy paid the men. She had visited the new farm at least 10 times before, and had been here just this morning to set up all of the accomodations for her horses. She decided it would be easiest to unload the stallions first. Naturally, she wanted to start with the hardest, or Tiger. She walked to the last trailer in her new driveway and opened the back. Standing inside the trailer was her magnificent black andalusian stud. Tiger tossed his head wildly as Michelle made her way to his head. She quickly clipped his chain on his halter and backed him out. His hooves clammored loudly on the metal ramp. He pulled strongly on his chain, but Michelle gave it a quick jerk and he calmed down. She led him slowly to the farthest out pasture, also one of the largest. She looked at the huge rolling hills of the 2 acre pasture with a river and trees all around it, and then let the beautiful animal off the line. He let out a huge whinny and coiled his muscles under him for a split second until exploding away. He bucked, reared, jigged, and most of all galloped as fast as he could across the field, and back, before shaking his head, rolling, and then eating grass. Michelle laughed out loud, then went back to the trailer to let the man know he was safe inside, then went to Blue's trailer and easily walked him out. The horse threw up his head a few times and pawed the dusty ground, but made his way easily to the second farthest pasture. It was a lot smaller, only 1.4 acres. She let him go, and instead of galloping away, he simply picked up a canter and went a few hundred yards before slowing up and looking over towards the other pasture, with Tiger in it and screaming his displeasure, but soon enough calmed down enough to eat some hay. Michelle walked back to the trailers and unloaded V without a problem. She trotted him to his pasture, then let him go where he simply walked in and promptly rolled, She smiled. Finally, she walked back to her own four horse trailer where she took out SurPrize and her baby Lady together and let them into a pasture across the farm, away from the studs. Then, she returned to retrieve Kiss and Lilly who easily followed her with utmost trust and love. After all the commotion was over, she watched the three trailers she had hired drive down the dusty road, and she herself started unpacking her car full of all of her clothes. She had had a moving truck deliver all of her belongings and furniture and horse supplies weeks before.

Michelle pulled in and eagerly awaited Daniel.

Daniel pulled up in his black truck, he turned off the engine, then got out. Noticing the house, he nodded his house "Nice place." He said as he looked toward Michelle, he heard the neighs of horses, the pounding of hooves against the stall doors, and the fresh smell of hay. Something that this guy loved.

Michelle glanced over towards her three studs, separated plentifully and wondered what the commotion was all about. Blue pranced about, while Tiger, of course was showing off. Meanwhile, she surpressed a giggle at the sight of gentle V lolling in the sun. She shifted her weight and said, Alright, let's go meet the horses. She started off at a quick walk towards V's large pasture. She whistled sharply and the well trained thoroughbred stud trotted easily over. He tossed his gorgeous bay head and nickered. she rubbed his soft nose and said, This is The Voyager, but just call him V.

Daniel nodded, then saw a Chesnut Thoroughbred stallion come trotting towards them, Daniel smiled, as he looked over the stallion, "He's very nicely built, not to mention extremely handsome." Daniel, then gently held out his hand towards V "Hello V, your not going to bite me are ya?" He said playfully.

Michelle nodded proudly. His confirmation is perfect. I bought him from the best. He's the gentlest boy here. V arched his neck towards the new man, but did nothing to move closer. Instead, he decided he was bored with this little meeting and trotted towards a patch of clover to eat. Michelle softly tugged Daniel's arm and made her way towards the next pen. Blue tossed his head wildly and galloped away from them as they approached. This is Virginia Blue Moon, but we just call him Blue for short. He's an Arabian, as you can probably tell. Not as naturally friendly as the other two stallions, but I still love him. The bay andalusian stallion over there is Tiger. He's a crazy one, but he's also my favorite.

Daniel smiled, he really seemed content here like he was at home. He continued to listen, and watch, the last thing he wanted was to screw up some how. The horse that really caught his eye was the Black Andulsain stallion, Daniel never seen anything like him, Daniel then continued to follow Michelle.

Michelle wandered over to the mare's pen. SurPrize was grazing with her baby, Lady by her side. Kiss and Lilly were trotting and cantering together around the pen. Michelle pointed to the Arabian chestnut with the chestnut filly That is SurPrize and Lady. Eye's on the Prize (surprize) was covered by Virginia Blue Moon. Surprise of Colors was the outcome, we just call her lady. She pointed out Kiss and Lilly too, and then said, You're first task is to catch up a horse, any horse, and groom them for me. I want to see you interact with a horse. just let me know which one you want to catch up, and then I'll grab you their halter/lead rope and show you the tack room.

Daniel nodded, then walked over to the Thoroughbred stallion V, he climbed over the railing. Then let out a whistle to hopefully get the stallions intrest, that was the most amazing stallion, next to the Anduslain stud as well. Daniel knew it would probably be a game of catch, cause that is what mostly happens when he approached a new horse, then came the challenge to catch them.

Michelle stood back, and then watched him walk over to Voyager's pasture. She smiled. The easy thoroughbred stud would probably give him little to no trouble. She grabbed his blue halter and tossed it to Daniel.
Voyager heard the sharp whistle and lifted his head softly, then flickered his ears, shook his head, and continued to eat.

He caught the lead rope, then slowly approached the stallion. He gently petted his muscular neck "Hey handsome, how are you?" He asked softly, and then gently slid the halter over his face, and then buckled it. Then started to lead him out.

The horse shakes his head as he clips the some material around his face. He is startled by the tug on the lead rope, and jogs forward. His muscles ripple beneath his newly clipped coat. His soft chocolate eyes survey his surroundings warily. He throws his head up in the hair and thrusts his top lip up. He knows there are mares around. He also knows that his newest foal is around. He whinnies and then brings his head back under him and trots forward.
Michelle watches critically and sees nothing absolutely wrong, except that the horse is moving a bit strong. She decides that she just wants to see him ride the horse, and then they can assess from there. Looking good! Just follow me around to the barn and I'll show you everything in the tack room. Just clip him up to the cross ties. He should be fine!

Daniel nodded, then started to gently talk to the stallion. After leading him into the cross ties he gently stroked his neck with his hand, a small smile formed on his lips. Daniel had a feeling that he was doing okay so far.

Voyager trotted strongly into the barn, hooves clattering. He tossed his head, and then stood pridefully while he was clipped to the ties.
Woah now, let's walk him instead of trotting next time! Michelle said. She then took his arm and directed him into the huge tack room. All of the saddles are on that wall, and the bridles are below them. They all are labeled on the back, as you can see. Then, each horse has his own grooming box with all of the brushes. V's is the blue one, matching his halter. Go ahead and grab that and tack him up. You'll be able to find his bridle and saddle easily. I'm going to leave you two alone for a moment. Michelle walked up to her horse and kissed his nose softly. Hey buddy. How you doing? Keep Daniel in line for me, won't you? She then walked confidently out of the barn and tossed her hair.
